Cover Canary + Giveaway: The Obvious Game

Quoting from the Inkspell Publishing website, The Obvious Game is a "compelling tale of a young woman who is facing her first romance during a time of turmoil in her life as her mum battles cancer".

“Everyone trusted me back
then. Good old, dependable Diana. Which is why most people didn’t notice at
first.”

Praise for The Obvious Game:

“I couldn’t put
down The Obvious Game. Arens perfectly captures the hunger, pain and
uncertainty of adolescence.” -- Ann Napolitano, author of A Good Hard Look and Within Arm's Reach

"THE OBVIOUS
GAME is a fearless, honest, and intense look into the psychology of anorexia.
The characters—especially Diana--are so natural and emotionally authentic that
you’ll find yourself yelling at the page even as you’re compelled to turn
it." -- Coert Voorhees, author of Lucky Fools and The Brothers Torres

"Let’s be
clear about one thing: there’s nothing obvious about The Obvious Game. Arens
has written a moving, sometimes heart-breaking story about one girl’s attempt
to control the uncontrollable. You can’t help but relate to Diana and her
struggles as you delve into this gem of a novel." -- Risa Green, author of The Secret Society of the Pink Crystal Ball
